Tips
- Keep the resting finger still and make the tap quick (under 0.3 s).
- Keep the resting finger down and tap repeatedly to run it several times.
- Tapping two fingers at the same time is a right-click — TokTok ignores it.
- Corner taps also click if “Tap to click” is on.
4. Edge sliders
Rest a finger on an edge and slide. While you slide, the pointer is hidden and stays put, then reappears when you lift.
| Edge | Direction | Default |
|---|---|---|
| Left | Up / down | Brightness |
| Right | Up / down | Volume |
| Top | Sideways | Volume |
| Bottom | Sideways | Brightness |
⭐ Pro: horizontal scroll (Final Cut · Premiere timelines), zoom (Photoshop etc.), or custom shortcuts for each direction.

6. ⭐ Pro features
| Feature | How |
|---|---|
| ◎ Radial menu | Rest three fingers for a moment (0.45 s by default) and a round menu appears at the pointer. Slide toward a slot and lift to run it; come back to the center to cancel. Each slot can hold an app, folder, named shortcut, Shortcut or built-in action; folders open in Finder. In Pro tab → Radial menu, choose how to open (three fingers · four fingers · another gesture only), the delay, background darkness, and keep open after lifting (then slide one finger to pick, tap to close). Set any gesture's action to “◎ Open radial menu” to open it that way too. While the menu is open, trackpad movement doesn't reach the app behind it. |
| Double taps | Tap corners, the top-center edge, or with three/four fingers twice. Defaults: quarters · next display · screenshot · new tab. The single tap there runs ~0.3 s later (it waits for a second tap). |
| Title bar gestures | Point at a window's title bar and swipe or pinch with two fingers. Defaults: left/right = halves, up = fill, down = center, diagonals = that quarter, pinch in = minimize, pinch out = full screen. Pick “Window to next / previous display” to move between monitors. |
| Your shortcuts | Action menu → Custom (record shortcut)… → press keys → Done. Press several to run them in order (e.g. ⌘A → ⌘C, up to 5). |
| Open app · Run shortcut | Action menu → Open app… or Run shortcut… (from the Shortcuts app). |
| Per-app actions | Pro tab → Per-app actions → add an app → change or turn off gestures only in that app, e.g. four-finger tap = translate only in Chrome. |
| Swipe to switch apps | Rest one finger and slide two sideways, like ⌘Tab. Lift to choose. |
| Turn off in apps | TokTok pauses while games or remote desktop apps are in front. |
| Slider modes | Horizontal scroll · zoom · custom shortcuts (see 4) |
7. Registering Pro
- Get Pro (₩9,900 · launch sale 50% off ₩4,950, lifetime) → your license code arrives at the email you entered at checkout.
- Settings → ⭐ Pro → paste the code → Register. Hyphens are added automatically.
- Gift codes ask for email verification (6 digits) the first time. The code is tied to that email (one person, up to 3 Macs); verify with the same email on other Macs.
- The license is checked online once a day. Without internet it keeps working for 30 days after the last check.
| Situation | What to do |
|---|---|
| Reinstall / reformat | Register the same code again. The same Mac doesn’t use an extra slot. |
| New Mac | Remove the old Mac in the Pro tab → register on the new one (up to 3 Macs) |
| Old Mac is gone | Enter your code on Manage devices → remove it |
| Lost your code | Enter your purchase email on Resend code |
8. General
Presets · settings file
Apply a recommended preset from the General tab in one click — 🌐 Browser power · 🪟 Window management · 🎬 Video & design · ⌨️ Copy & paste pro. Per-app settings and your license stay.
Settings file → Export… saves everything as a .toktok file. On another Mac, Import… it (or double-click the file). Share it with friends — no license inside.
- Pause while typing: ignores gestures for 0.5 s after a key press, so a resting palm won’t trigger anything.
- Language: follow system · 한국어 · English
- Updates: Check for updates → Install and relaunch.
- Reset to defaults: restores all checkboxes and actions.
9. Troubleshooting
System settings check (Help tab)
Shows macOS settings that overlap with TokTok as ✓ / ⚠️ and opens them for you. TokTok never changes them itself.
- Three-finger drag on → three-finger taps may become drags → Pointer Control → Trackpad Options… → Dragging style
- Swipe between full-screen apps with three fingers → overlaps with swipe app switching (Pro) → use four fingers
Gestures are detected but nothing happens
Check Accessibility access. Removing TokTok with − and allowing it again fixes most cases.
Magic Trackpad doesn’t work
It’s detected automatically when connected. If not, Help tab → Rescan.
Gestures aren’t recognized well
Help tab → turn on Debug logging, try a few times, then use Send feedback — the log is attached automatically (gesture records and app names — no keystrokes or screen content).
